Where Are GRIS Save Files Located?
Where GRIS keeps its Save01 folder on Windows and Mac, and which three files to copy for a full backup.
Last updated
GRIS stores progress in a Save01 folder nested under a numeric account ID. The Windows build uses the LocalLow tree under the nomada studio company folder. The Mac build mirrors it under Application Support.
Three files matter: Persistent, Progress and Config. Copy all three. The folder name casing is exact, with lowercase company and uppercase game, which trips up manual searches that ignore case. Steam Cloud mirrors this tree, so pause sync before any manual restore. When in doubt, copy both trees.
Where GRIS stores this, by platform
%USERPROFILE%\AppData\LocalLow\nomada studio\GRIS\[UserID]\Save01
Holds Save01 with Persistent.gs, Progress.gs and Config.gs under a numeric ID folder. Note the exact casing: lowercase nomada studio, uppercase GRIS.
~/Library/Application Support/nomada studio/GRIS/[UserID]/Save01
Same Save01 layout as Windows. If empty, check the unity.nomada studio.GRIS bundle variant beside it, which some installs use instead.
Frequently asked questions
How do I back up my GRIS save?
Copy the whole Save01 folder, which holds Persistent.gs, Progress.gs and Config.gs. Keep the numeric account ID parent intact so the game matches the backup to your profile. Restore with Steam Cloud off to stop an overwrite.
My Mac GRIS folder looks empty. Where else can it be?
Check the alternate Unity bundle path under Application Support. Some Mac installs write to the unity.nomada studio.GRIS variant instead of the plain nomada studio folder. The Save01 contents are identical in either place.
